CLEANING

What should I do if the passenger has soiled my vehicle?

Once you have completed the journey, please go offline and immediately contact the Customer Service team with images. You will need to give details of the incident and provide a receipt, or an invoice, for cleaning within 24 hours.

When contacting Customer Service, please provide:

  • Journey number

  • Date & time

  • Photographs clearly showing the extent of the soiling

Please note, you should not be completing any journeys on the Wheely platform until your vehicle is clean and you have contacted Customer Service. If you do, you might not be eligible for compensation.

Wheely reserves a right to reject a claim in the event there is no clear evidence, and/or we have reasonable grounds to suspect fraud.

What will happen if the soiling does not warrant a professional clean?

If your vehicle is soiled, but does not require a professional clean or valet, you might not be eligible for compensation.

Wheely reserves the right to not pay out compensation if we deem the soiling to not require professional cleaning.

What is an accepted receipt for compensation?

Receipts and invoices need to be submitted in PDF format. Alternatively, clear and legible photographs are accepted. If the receipt is hand written, we may request a redacted bank statement to verify the payment.

If the photograph of the receipt is blurry, or of low resolution, you might not be eligible for compensation.

How do I receive payment for the cleaning service?

If your claim is valid, you will be reimbursed the cleaning fee within 2 working days, which will be paid to you in the following week’s earnings.

Is there a cap on cleaning fees?

The maximum compensation Wheely is able to offer is £75.
